- Market position — staying ahead of competitors and identifying new opportunities across the Des Moines submarket
What you bring:
- 3+ years of management experience (bachelor's degree or equivalent experience)
- A track record of developing talent and holding teams accountable
- Working knowledge of P&L management and business accounting
